    FTP: not connecting to Dbox2

    Hi guys

    I flashed the new lakys-sylas image onto my box (top image by the way). Tranferred it over using FlashFXP. Then had been trying to sort out the new keys.

    Now when I try and connect to the box I get;

    [R] Connecting to Dbox2 -> IP=192.168.1.8 PORT=21
    [R] Connected to Dbox2


    (it hangs for 30 seconds, then I get)

    [R] Connection failed (Connection lost)

    Does anyone know why this is happening? And a fix for it?

    Don't think anything has changed from before. I had been looking about in the file manager trying to work out how to get the keys sorted and I fear I have locked out the box or something??

    Is there a way of sorting this without going down the null modem cable route??

    Any help is mucho appreciated.

    use IE to see what the problem is

    ftp://root:dbox2@<ip address of dbox>

    if you can connect problem is with flashfxp

        Neat trick.

        It looks like I can connect but I can't see any of the folders or contents? (see screen grab in attachment)

                Sorry for confusing matters mate. I am getting a bit confused myself. It was a typo in the first post.

                I was using 192.168.1.8

                Thanks for you help with this.

                      Yes 192.168.1.8 is my box and 192.168.1.7 is my network card

                      Just checked it to be sure.

                      It was all working ok before until I started trying to sort the keys.

                        it's blank cause there are no files in the root folder it's empty

                        try ipconfig /all in cmd prompt

                        try to ping ur box in cmd prompt

                        try f tp://192.168.1.8

                              Request timed out again mate.

                              Get the same thing as before when trying to ftp from the cmd prompt as well.
